Personality Type Test

Chance across a link by BBC that tests your personality type here from Michelle. Yes Michelle, if you're reading this, I read your blog too, when I have the time. Your link is linking to the wrong test too. :) No time to go dinner with you all, but I still like to kaypoh a bit. ;)

This is my result:

More about Realists

Realists are loyal to the people around them and work hard to keep their promises. They are honest and straightforward with others and expect the same in return. Realists believe in standard procedures and will only support change when there is a demonstrable benefit.

Realists are the most common personality type in the UK, according to a nationwide survey.

Realists respect factual information, which they store up to use when making decisions. This group likes to have time to think quietly and carefully before taking action.

These extremely productive people like to be occupied in their leisure time with pursuits such as craftwork, hiking or reading.

In situations where they can't use their talents or are unappreciated, Realists may become obsessed with schedules, critical of others or have trouble trusting other people to get the job done properly. Under extreme stress, Realists may complain loudly that events have taken a turn for the worse and predict negative outcomes.

Realists typically only share their opinions or personal experiences with trusted friends.

Realist Careers

Realists are attracted to jobs where decision making based on factual knowledge and experience is required.

It's important to remember that no survey can predict personality type with 100 percent accuracy. Experts say that we should use personality type to better understand ourselves and others, but shouldn't feel restricted by our results.

Am I like that? Hmm... I always thought I like to try new things and think of new ideas. Or maybe its because I'm usually left with no choice in the matter, so I always ended up doing something new, and thinking of something new in order to resolve it.. :D

I guess its mostly true, in a way. :p The only way to improve is to really understand yourself. Looks like I have to work hard in some areas. Am I really too logical? Hmm...
